Charter Renewal for the Maritime Advisory Committee for Occupational Safety and Health (MACOSH)

Résumé

In accordance with the provisions of the Federal Advisory Committee Act, as amended (5 U.S.C., App. 2), and after consultation with the General Services Administration, the Secretary of Labor has determined that the charter renewal of the Maritime Advisory Committee for Occupational Safety and Health ("Committee") is in the public interest. The Committee will better enable OSHA to perform the duties imposed by the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 ("OSH Act"), 29 U.S.C. 651 et seq.). Authority to establish this Committee is found in Sections 6(b) and 7(b) of the OSH Act, Section 41 of the Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act (33 U.S.C. 941), other general agency authority in Title 5 of the United States Code, and 29 CFR part 1912.
